Container - Board Game w/ Broker Investment Banker

This is a 100% fully 3D-printed Jumbo Edition of the classic economic board game Container, including the Broker / Investment Banker expansion, designed from the ground up to be printed entirely without an AMS.

Every component—containers, ships, factories, warehouses, markets, money, scoring cards, loans, and player boards—is single-color printable, making this one of the most complete and accessible full-game prints available.

This is a true table-presence build: oversized components, chunky currency, tactile containers, and durable player pieces that feel closer to a deluxe retail edition than a typical print-and-play.

NOTE: This is a remix based on the base game components (Ships and Crates) created by Reddit User: r/HenryBlatbugIII and the files available here: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1kMBrPEX7y0PW6eOC1rhlIsKSfKPOLVI-/view
